Colorado Estate Planning and Probate Attorney
Death and taxes, the two certainties of life. Minor & Brown
has created estate plans (wills, trusts, etc.) for its clients
since 1977. We understand the intricacies of the state and federal
tax laws as they apply to your estate and we appreciate each client’s
special needs.
Our Experience
An effective and comprehensive estate plan addresses many important issues to assure the emotional and financial needs of your successors are met according to your desires. Who needs to create an estate plan? Anyone who wishes to direct the distribution of his or her assets rather than entrust that distribution to state statute.
The most common issues facing our clients are as follows:
- Make certain loved ones receive assets according to your wishes,
- Reduce or eliminate estate taxes,
- Avoid the expense and delay of probate,
- Protect assets from personal and business creditors,
- Provide for children of previous marriages. Make funds available to children at the appropriate times for the appropriate reasons,
- Ensure the continuation of a business,
- Arrange for income and for the management of assets to benefit you and your family in case of disability,
- Give guidance to your physician and family in case of terminal illness or injury.
Whether a client's circumstances are simple or complex, it is with careful consideration of the pertinent issues that your estate plan will be created.
To help you, we've designed checklists and informational handouts. Our "Estate Planning Summary" describes the highlights of each client's plan thus eliminating the often-frustrating search for important information.
